Scuba Game on its way

[darkraingod]

I know this is probably not s'posed to be here, but I thought some of you fellow Texans might be interested in this. A scuba diving game is coming out for the Wii console in October. Info is here: http://wii.ign.com/articles/810/810095p1.html

And, of course, it couldn't be a virtual scuba dive without at least one diver dangling hoses, could it?

That never happens in real life diving.

It also encourages poking fish. Cest la vie.

But most of all I didn't see a thing about The Sirens

Maybe if it came with a special mask where I could get in the pool with my gear on and see the image inside the mask. Otherwise, I have to ask what is the point? But then again, there are cooking video games out right now that are selling like crazy. I don't understand the point of getting a video game to do something that you can do in real life.

I don't know. Drinking vodka and playing Wii Tennis or Bowling is pretty fun in the comfort of my living room. Much less embarrasing than being in public!

My problem is I haven't been able to get out and do it in real life enough! With the local lakes looking like chocolate milk (flood runoff), and not being able to get to Coz or the Gulf of Mexico this summer, I'm about to go crazy!
Of course, I'm not sure that "virtual diving" wouldn't just make things worse.

I've got to go diving...sigh.

The 18th is just around the corner.
